eternatus

Eternatus!!!!

Eternatus is a MASSIVE vaguely skeleton Poison/Dragon-type dragon thing. At 65’07”, or 20.0m, it’s by far the longest pokemon in existence, surpassing even the comically huge Wailord. It’s a pretty creative design, resembling an Ultra Beast in terms of aesthetic, albeit much less aesthetically cohesive than any of them if you ask me. It’s also impossible to talk about without going over Sword and Shield’s trainwreck of a plot, which bein’ real I’m super not excited to do. It’s a mess, guys :(

So uh. How to start this. Eternatus is a Legendary pokemon sustained by absorbing energy emanating from the Galar region into the core on its chest. 3,000 years ago, there was an event called the Darkest Day (Black Night in Japan, which sounds far cooler), in which Eternatus attempted to draw out an excessive amount of energy and created a black storm. This storm caused numerous pokemon in the region to enter their Dynamax and Gigantamax states, which then all went berserk and rampaged throughout Galar, nearly destroying it. It only ended when Zacian and Zamazenta defeated Eternatus in battle, stopping the phenomenon.

Come present day, Chairman Rose is attempting to bring about the Darkest Day AGAIN, because like. Apparently Galar will run out of Dynamax energy? But like, not for a thousand more years. Rose just has a lot of anxiety over this or something. It’s kinda framed as a clumsy climate change analogue which frankly makes for a terrible plot given climate change is an issue RIGHT NOW, not a thousand years in the future, and trying to fix it is a GOOD THING and not at all comparable to summoning a draconic apocalypse. Like, what are people supposed to glean from this? That major issues don’t matter right now and also it’s not worth trying to fix them? The whole thing’s a dumpster fire.

Anyway, Rose succeeds at restraining Eternatus during the player and Leon’s Championship Match, because apparently even waiting a single day was out of the question. Then he predictably couldn’t control it and the Darkest Day happens again, with Eternatus then absorbing enough energy to transform into its Eternamax state, which is uh. A giant hand coming out of a spiral-shaped thing, I guess. It’s also 328’01” (or 100.0m) long now, which is incomprehensibly huge, and its weight is just listed as ???. I like how they’re really pushing the boundary of what qualifies as a pokemon, but it doesn’t really mesh with the base form or make any sort of conceptual sense. Eternamax Eternatus also isn’t actually accessible to the player, which is unfortunate. But yeah, Zacian and Zamazenta appear and help defeat it again and the player catches it and all is well!

Shiny Eternatus is a deep crimson, which is cool but it doesn’t contrast the red glow as well. I like it well enough, though. Not that it matters since it’s shiny-locked and you can’t get one :v

All that said, though I don't dislike Eternatus, I don't particularly like it either. The idea of a poisonous skeleton dragon is GREAT, but Eternatus’s execution just feels soulless. The Ultra Beasts all had a similarly weird aesthetic, but they all still felt solidly designed, and they were typically packed with a whole lot of personality. Eternatus is just kind of a mess of pointy spinal columns haphazardly glued together with no real substance to it, literally or figuratively. And it's mired by its association with SwSh's abysmal plot, which doesn't help either. At least it's got a pretty colour scheme going for it, though, and the sheer weirdness of the Eternamax form in particular earns it a lot of respect.

Pointy spine hand-dragon/10.
